Two of the most anticipated shows of 2008, So You Think You Can Dance and the Biggest Loser, will burst on to screens Sunday February 3, leading the charge in TEN's stellar line up.

These marquee domestic programs are the first of many shows to premiere over the subsequent two weeks building an enviable program of entertainment.

David Mott, chief programming officer, Network Ten:

"TEN is in one of the strongest positions ever leading into the 2008 ratings season.

"The audience response to SYTYCD, Biggest Loser and now Good News Week, is more promising than even we imagined. "

"Our domestic slate is robust, complementing our enviable US line-up and we are not shy about getting our schedule out there in what we all recognise as TV's most competitive time of year."

Also premiering for the first time on Australian screens will be the US hit from international crime writing success James Patterson, Women's Murder Club, not the mention the return of comedy gurus Kelsey Grammar and Patricia Heaton in Back to You, with David Spade and Patrick Warburton in Rules of Engagement.

Damien Leith will make his first appearance on TV away from his first love singing as host of Saving Kids with Damien Leith, and help tell some of the most heart-warming and inspiring stories from the Sydney Children's Hospital.

TEN's line-up of the year will be complemented by the return of TV favourites from home and abroad: Bondi Rescue, House, Supernatural, SVU, Numb3rs, Medium and hot new comers Kid Nation and Burn Notice.

Throughout the year TEN can boast a staggering depth of product with: Rove, Kenny, NCIS, Life, 5th Grader, Australian Idol, Saving Babies, Dexter, Neighbours, AFL, brand new Simpsons, brand new Futurama, How To Look Good Naked, US Army Wives, Don't Forget the Lyrics Series 3, Deadliest Catch 2, Ice Road Truckers, My Dad Is Better Than Your Dad, Supernatural, Law & Order, Criminal Intent, Top Model and Pussycat Doll "Girlilicious".

As So You Think You Can Dance ends, the hotly debated granddaddy of reality TV Big Brother returns to screens with new hosts and Australia's leaders in breakfast radio, Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O, at the helm.

Stay tuned over the coming weeks as even more domestic and international shows are announced.
